From the Orient

Mark did it, Zeldman did it and is doing it again. So, I thought, why not? But I I’m going to document every change I make, and the reasons for it.

Goals for the redesign:-

1. Provide Semantic Markup (or as good as I can get it).
2. Use XHTML 1.0 (but follow Appendix C of the spec)
3. Provide a design that is expandable for additional functions
4. Aim for beauty over function in presentation
5. Valid markup (natch)
6. Provide accessible markup
7. Trackbacks/Pingbacks/Comments etc should feel part of the entry rather than dangly bits

No doubt I’ll fall short of the goals, but having documented the process, I might find out why.
